We've used pampers and huggies wipes but both break our daughters butt out really bad. So we have been using damp paper towels. She's two days away from being 2 months and we still can't use wipes any suggestions?

My little baby girl Makai was 7lbs. 10oz. and exactly 20 in. long. I had her vaginal and I was so thankful she wasn't as big as I was when my mom had me. LoL I know that sounds bad but those were my exact thoughts in the hospital.

I'm against piercing my daughters ears. I feel like it should be her decision when she gets older. I don't think because "it's cute" is a good reason to make that decision for my child. As she grows they may change position. She may not want her ears pierced when she is old enough to make that deci…

2. If I hold baby up on Makai’s feet, Makai puts some of her weight on Makai’s legs. I don’t do this often, because it can affect Makai’s hip development, but Makai just loves it when I do! — it’s like Makai can’t wait to start standing on Makai’s own.

3. Baby is starting to get picky about who holds her {name} — and just when we were feeling ready for a babysitter! Makai needs time to get to know new people.

5. My partner and I had a heart-to-heart about chores. Between childcare and household jobs, there’s a lot more that needs to be done these days! We talked about how much each of us can do and how we can work as a team.

6. I made a list of emergency contact numbers for babysitters. It includes our cell phone numbers as well as poison control and our pediatrician’s number. I hung it somewhere visible like the fridge or right next to the phone.

7. I’m working on remembering who I am apart from being a mom. I took an hour this week to rest and do something just for me.
